[QUOTE="Demon%20Burger:420693"]As an audience member at Mark's, I've never had a complaint when seeing a show there. I don't give a hot fuck about moshing, and personally, I'm pretty fuckin' happy they DON'T allow it. However, I can totally understand people's issue with it. As for being in a band PLAYING at Mark's... It'd be nice if the club started treating the opening bands with respect. I don't expect the club to bend over and kiss our feet, but for fuck's sake...cut us a fucking break. We just paid a hefty amount to play the damn show. We get nothing in return - so to speak. Making us remove our "in the band" wrist bands as soon as we get off stage so that we can no longer go outside and come back in is fucking RIDICULOUS!!! We have equipment that needs moving. We have merch that needs moving. We have legit reasons for needing access to the outside. Leave us the fuck alone. Also, getting stopped at the door ON MY WAY OUT of the club at the end of the night because I had a bottle of water in my hands is ALSO ridiculous! Dude, it's 1:00 am. I just got finished playing/seeing a show. You are now forcing us out of the club, but "OH SHIT!!! He's got a bottle of water in his hands....and......OMG, he's ABOUT to walk out the door to the parking lot with it!!!! Stop him and correct the situation!!!!". Chill the fuck out, guy. And while I'm on the subject...can we NOT book 9 million local bands for every show? How about we stop offering the national acts well above what they normally make just to get them there, then shake down local bands for $750 to make up for it, disguising it as an "opportunity" to get your band on a major show. This "opportunity" used to be based on TALENT.....NOT how much cash you're willing to pay. THAT's the shit that sours the FUCK out of a night that should otherwise, be a badass time. I've played a ton of clubs over the years now opening for major national acts.....including the Palladium. NO other club treats local support as bad as Mark's Showplace. NONE. If they keep that shit up, they're gonna start driving the scene away from there, and eventually, will end up losing all the shows they used to be able to get. [/QUOTE]
